Experience top-notch arts and culture at Towson University.
In honor of the 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States, Towson University’s Summer at the Center Arts Festival presents America 250.
This dynamic celebration, running June 11 – July 11, explores the evolving American story through performance, visual art, film, and community engagement. Coinciding with Juneteenth and Pride Month, the festival honors the struggles and triumphs of those who have fought — and continue to fight — for freedom, equality, and self-expression. Through these intersecting observances, America 250 amplifies the diverse voices and creative energies that shape our national identity and invites audiences to reflect on whose stories are told, remembered, and celebrated.
Celebrate the American mosaic of diverse voices through music, theatre, art, and dance.
